Karpathy Article Writing — Writes technical blog posts in Andrej Karpathy's first-person, build-it-then-explain-it voice.

Vad den gör

Rewrites or drafts technical writeups (experiments, reproductions, from-scratch builds) in Andrej Karpathy's voice: first-person, quantitative over adjectival, honestly hedged, dryly self-deprecating, no marketing cadence. Triggers when a user asks for a post 'in Karpathy's style,' a 'Karpathy-flavored' writeup, or wants an experiment/tutorial to read like karpathy.github.io.

Testrapport

Single self-contained SKILL.md, no bundled scripts or external references to break; ran a real before/after (naive transformer-vs-RNN benchmark writeup) and the skill version was unmistakably Karpathy-register -- first person, one exact 3x figure, a bucket-brigade analogy, a shrug-hedge -- versus the baseline's generic 'in today's rapidly evolving field' third-person filler.
